When was the last time you had your car's battery checked? If you can't remember, it's a good idea to test your battery and make sure everything's working properly, and it's easy to do yourself.

Before you test, your ignition and lights should be off, and you should be wearing gloves and goggles to prevent acid burns. Using a voltmeter, connect its red or positive lead to the battery's positive terminal and the black or negative lead to the negative terminal. If your voltmeter's reading is 12.3 or above, the battery's in good shape. After that, you can clean your battery's terminals and posts with a solution specifically designed for batteries, always ensuring that you remove the negative terminal first.
